Recap
Locked inside a triangle of thoughts for you
Remembering my days you painted them from blue
Reminiscing on the days of short memories we made
Feeling like our time - was jipped and played
I don't feel I had an exceptionally long time with us at all
I feel like had we had more time - stuff could've been resolved
Although we could've balanced us - maybe we could've evolved
(Not that this is true) but I feel like almost 7 years was punished from you
You're a self-confessed introvert & you really love your work
I felt like everything you did - there I was to lurk
You expected me to stay 10-12 hours on a beach just to watch you
But when Holly's bored she'll be a if she has nothing to do
You'd say I was always in my head & didn't wanna interact with you
But if I did you'd get snappy 'cause you're working - & that's so true
You wanted me to talk & when I did you seemed uninterested,
& would only have conversations with me that you selected
(At the time) my patience sucked to understand & learn to write code with you
The concept of I.T. stuff (unless administration) there's no way I can do
You'd go almost every day not saying anything at all to me
But hardly ever balanced it so where you & I could together be free
At the time I didn't get it - at the time I didn't see
The infinite ways we could've been so good
If we had put the work in, to make sure both of us understood
It was difficult 'cause you were always stressed
We forgot if we tried together it could come out so blessed
You forgot together that we make a damn good team
But we were both too stubborn to believe it
Neither of us were ready & willing to receive it
We can't block each other out & expect it to work
Otherwise we'd both bottle it up & go berserk
If it were important to each other's selection
Then we would've made a conscience effort to put in more genuine affection
